Your Family Dentist in Frankston - Making Smiles Shine
Welcome to The Dentist’s Chair, a family-run dental clinic in Frankston providing general dental care for adults, teenagers and children. We understand that people arrive with different concerns. You may be due for a routine check-up, managing a sore tooth, considering a cosmetic change, or helping a child feel comfortable at the dentist for the first time. Our role is to listen, assess what is happening and explain suitable options in plain language.
The clinic is located at 18 Fairway Street, Frankston. Appointments are designed to give you time to ask questions and understand the next step, including the likely benefits, limitations, alternatives and costs of any recommended treatment. No two mouths or treatment plans are the same, so recommendations are made after an individual examination.

Dental Care for Individuals and Families in Frankston
Good dental care is not limited to fixing a problem once it becomes painful. It also involves monitoring changes over time, supporting practical home care and dealing with concerns early where possible. At The Dentist’s Chair, preventive appointments sit alongside restorative, cosmetic and urgent dental services, allowing care to be planned around your oral health rather than a one-size-fits-all schedule.
Some patients feel comfortable in a dental setting, while others need more time, clear explanations or a gradual approach. Please tell the team if you have had a difficult past experience, feel anxious about treatment, have a strong gag reflex, live with a health condition or take medicines that may affect your dental care. This information helps the dentist plan the appointment appropriately.

Retainers

Gum Disease Treatment
Gum health assessment and treatment, with referral to a registered specialist when clinically appropriate.
Emergency & Urgent Dental Care
Urgent dental assessment for toothache, swelling, damaged teeth, lost fillings and other time-sensitive concerns.
What to Expect at Your First Appointment
Your first visit usually begins with a discussion about your dental and medical history, current concerns and what you would like help with. The dentist will examine your teeth, gums, bite and the soft tissues of your mouth. Dental X-rays or other records may be recommended when they are clinically justified and likely to affect diagnosis or treatment planning.
Once the assessment is complete, the dentist will explain what has been found. Where treatment is recommended, you should receive information about the available options, expected process, material risks, alternatives, likely fees and what may happen if treatment is delayed or declined. You can take time to consider non-urgent treatment and ask further questions before deciding.

A Personal, Family-Run Practice
The Dentist’s Chair is led by Dr Adrian Finti and supported by a small family team. The practice’s relaxed personality is part of the experience, but clinical decisions remain grounded in assessment, informed consent and the needs of each patient. The aim is to make communication straightforward, not to minimise the importance of treatment or suggest that dental procedures are free of risk.
Patients are welcome to discuss cost concerns and appointment preferences before care begins. Any health-fund benefit, fixed-price package or payment option is subject to its current terms, available cover and clinical suitability. Ask the team for written information that applies to your circumstances.
Meet Dr Adrian Finti - Your Smile Champion in Frankston

Dr Adrian runs the clinic alongside his wife, Heidi, their son, and Lulu, the French bulldog (who keeps everyone in line). For him, dentistry isn’t just about teeth — it’s about people, families, and making sure you feel right at home.
